Which Christian denomination do you belong to? | Comments

I got Methodist by 85%, followed by Lutheran by 73%.

Well, this is really interesting. I have never been to a methodist church in my life since there are barely any where I live at all. I have done a similar quiz on another website and also got Methodist though. Not sure how to deal with this. The only methodist church in my area (still over 25km away) is english-speaking and I live in Germany. I have always attended evangelical church services (mind you, european evangelicals are very different from american evangelists) and liked it but I am not baptized yet.

I'm a restorationist. I knew I have always had difficulties with all of the other organized religious organizations I have tried to be a part of. I have never been accepted by anyone. Now I know!!!

I am a a non-chalcedonian Orthodox priest. Was either type of Orthodox Christian even an option here?

You are a baka i am a miko of a shirne in japan and how did i get puritan xd

I got Lutheran... You adhere to the theologies of Martin Luther, one of the first great figureheads of the Protestant Reformation. You believe firmly in salvation through faith alone, the issue which caused Luther to split with Rome. However, you do not accept the doctrine of predestination as it is interpreted by Calvinists, instead believing that anyone is capable of accepting God and entering Heaven. However, Lutherans do believe that all men are born sinners, and as such cannot reject sin through their own free will. Lutherans do have a broad range of views on church organisation, and while they are widely recognised as Protestants, many do not accept this grouping considering it was Luther's intention to reform the Papacy, not split from it.

Which Christian denomination do you belong to?

Your Result: Baptist 76%

As a Baptist, you believe that the saved are commanded to be baptised as a public display of their faith. You are strongly opposed to the whole idea of infant baptism. After all, it's not recored in the Bible, and it is impossible for a child, still innocent in the eyes of God, to accept Christ with all its heart, and be forgiven for future sins. Baptists share many views with mainstream reformed churches regarding matters such as infallable scripture, evangelism, the Trinity, and the Second Coming of Christ. However, Baptists also place a huge emphasis on religious freedom, believing strongly in the autonomy of local churches, and more generally the separation of church and state.

Yeah I guess its true ;)

i got apostolic, and i am!

I believe in infant dedication by the pastor and the infant is anointed with oil. Me and my brother and three sisters were all dedicated to God in Mount Zion Church. Though its not necessary, It has meaning to me and something like a sign post I can look back to and it has helped me in dark times of my life. The comment below about gender is a real issue and not to be attacked by the ignoranous religious dooahbag below her very honest and valid questions. Im sorry you got no answer so I will do my best to answer. I believe in the bible and believe the bible has Gods opinion on todays issues in society. But God is not stupid and blind to our issues we face today concerning genders, male female transsexual homosexuals bio sexuality etc. I think the answer isnt so much my opinion but Gods unchanging character and According to Malachi 3 God does not change. So I stand with God on it and God loves the world and he loves Homosexuals. He loves sinners but hates sin. If you want to know something that was a revelation to me and that is the most righteous and holy man woman etc is just the same. The bible says that our righteousness is as filthy rags to Gods holiness and standard. The problem is ALL ENCOMPASSING and includes every single facet of our human nature and that includes our best efforts to be holy. Homosexuality gets singled out a lot and other things get put on the pile of excusing. So God has the power to change our nature from sinner to Son of God. Our old nature is not included in that new creation. If any man be in Christ he is a new creation, old things have passed away and all things are made new. Neo is the word for new and Sozo is the word for salvation (Ignore me trying to be clever) so homosexuality is A fruit of our sinful nature as is all of our nature. Which is why we need to reckon it all dead and crucified on the cross. And we do by faith even when we still feel the urges of our flesh. That is the battle and struggle to transcend from death to lif

I'm an atheist and took the quiz for kicks. Turns out me and Puritans have some similar ideas, who'd have guessed?

Good quiz OP, the quality is very nice and I enjoyed it even as a non-Christian :)

This quiz was alright! It didn't guess correctly, it was close, but you know with any quiz depending on your mood, the time of day, and how far you read into each individual questions, you'll get different answers each time. So it was alright! I'll give you that!~

Interesting. I got Methodist. Never thought that since I went to Baptist churches.

You got it right! 88% Catholic, that's me!

Heck yeah! I loved this quiz.

Many of the questions limit answers and leaves no room for balanced opinion on the question. Thus answers may not always be accurate since in some areas the options given are in themselves someone's theological and religious opinion and not solidly based on bible or theological fact. In making my choices I found it was a case of choosing a lesser 'evil' in certain instances and the end result of 'puritanical' is completely inaccurate as I have very different approach to faith and the church.... Liberal would be closer to it. I believe we should be Christians above everything and the one defining character is live a Christ centered life without being stuck in the traditional rut yet appreciating the traditions and liturgy of the church.

Penn: I completely understood every proposition in the quiz. Are you asking the survey to be dumbed-down or should you do some homework and wonder why you don't know? The survey was written by someone who knows the different church "camps" and their main distinctives. It covered the nature of the church, salvation, Trinity, faith, atonement etc. I would encourage you to study Grudem's systematic theology to get an understanding of basic Christian doctrine and categories. No hard feelings I hope.

verki52: First, I would ask you, "What makes you believe that you are a Christian?" Second, I would ask you, "Does it offend or concern you that might NOT be a Christian?"

Faith in Christ alone means that you trust in the entire work of Christ, his life and death, to satisfy God's demands of perfection "Be perfect as your father in heaven is perfect." If you believe that Jesus took your place on the cross (substitution) "He made Him(Jesus) to be sin for us..." (1 Cor. 5:21), and that He took the wrath of God on your behalf for ALL your sins, then you can be a Christian. To believe that you can earn your way into heaven by religion, good deeds, self-improvement projects, etc...is self salvation.

Denominations throughout church history have been helpful to bring out the different distinctions of doctrine within God's Word. However, some denominations are NOT helpful. Also, if you are an atheists, why take the quiz? Why affirm what you deny? Mormons cannot be Christians because they don't believe that Jesus' work saves, but their own "work" saves by good deeds. That is called another/false gospel. Mainline Christianity for centuries have considered the origins and beliefs of the Mormon church to be cultic. Calvinists believe in free will but that human will is either free to sin or fee to obey. Human will is always enslaved either SELF/Satan or to Savior. It is a free will that is bound. Free to sin or free to please God.

please make the words easier to understand please brake it down for dummies like me. how can there be over 100% religeon.
